“Feel” Project Part 3: Using Pop Song Lyrics to Write “Feeling it”

It’s Sunday so I took some time to review the Google Docs, scrolling through the piece titles to see what I felt like working on. I stopped at “Feeling it.”

This was the placeholder text/raw material I had:

here we go here we go here we go here we go here we go here we go
oh yeah oh yeah o yea
here it is
i’m feeling it
wow
are you feeling it?

Complete garbage. But I had an idea: what would happen if I made the piece from lyrics of dance-pop songs that have the word “feeling” in the title?

Originally, I was going to keep lines from the songs in tact and just jumble the order of them, which was a technique I did for two abandoned TRAPPED IN DEJA VU TV pieces, but then I decided to get a word set from the 25 most frequently used words in the lyrics. I took lyrics from “CAN’T STOP THE FEELING!” by Justin Timberlake, “Good Feeling” by Flo Rida, and “I Gotta Feeling” by The Black Eyed Peas.
